Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Artamo]

I always took it as not entertaining foolish behavior and ideas. "count me out" not "you're an idiot" but maybe the latter is the intended meaning?

I think when I’ve seen people who have been described that way exhibit that trait, it’s typically verbal abuse, and comes from a position of power - I.E. they can say things bluntly because the person they’re saying it to can’t do anything about it, which brings it back around to Mannahnin’s respect quote in my mind.

Well, that was pointless.

“I’m not arguing! You’re arguing!”

Go away.

It’s weird how we all accept that power corrupts and yet also deny that when we are personally in positions of power that we are corrupted by them. See literally the whole of human history for a multitude of examples.

New crafting/painting space + work bench set up. I really shouldn't have bothered because in a couple of weeks the "walls" (really dividers that have been up 50+ years) behind it and to the left of it are going to be torn down to be replaced with actual walls that can bear the weight of shelves, but I couldn't help myself - being without a crafting space that long would have been hard on my ability to cope with the rest of life.

I need to tidy up my space...badly.

I think that I have the same workbench in my shop, though it looks like a bomb dropped on it. I really need to clean up the basement

Since I run my games in the same room I paint minis, draw battle maps, and build terrain, I use the occasion/excuse of gameday every 3 to 5 weeks to clean up the space - esp. since that workspace also becomes my staging ground for said materials during play, for easy access.
